Re: 1997 Subaru SVX LSi, 112k miles
Not to hijack, but I noticed a question about the VIN number..
What's the significance?

Re: Check engine light
Odd that the light comes on when you hit operating temperature, and, presumably, goes off after it cools down again. Traditionally, when the "Check Engine" light comes on, it stays on until the...

Re: SVX tranny
Definitely avoid the 02 WRX 5 speed.. It was the first year of the dual cone synchros, and let's just say it wasn't ready for prime time. I should know, I bought mine brand new. Replaced the trans 3...

Re: Replacing locks?
Locks? An SVX has locks? ..
Never used them since I got the car, and, I suspect, that the previous owner didn't use them either...

Re: SVX turns off while it's running
Ditto on the MAF sensor... Been there, done that. I had exactly the same symptoms. It was just like the key was pulled out of the ignition. At low speed, I'd have to hit neutral to re start.. at...

A couple of observations / suggestions for you..

My suggestion is that .10 to .15 amp / hr is too much for a "dark power" drain. Let's bust down some basic math.. .15 amp / hr drain is 1.5 amp /hr for 10 hours. 3.0 amp / hr for 20 hours. 3.6 amp /...
